to enable OSPFv3.
Interface
Displays the physical network interface on which OSPFv3 is Enabled/Disabled.
Priority
Helps to determine the OSPFv3 designated router for a network. The router with the highest priority
will be more eligible to become Designated Router. Setting the value to 0 makes the router ineligible
to become Designated Router. The default value is 1. Lower the value means higher the priority.
Hello Interval
The number of seconds for Hello Interval timer value. Enter the number in seconds that the Hello
packet will be sent. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. The
default value is 10 seconds.
Dead Interval
The number of seconds that a device’s hello packets must not have been seen before its neighbors
declare the OSPF router down. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common
network. The default value is 40 seconds. OSPF requires these intervals to be exactly the same
between two neighbors. If any of these intervals are different, these routers will not become
neighbors on a particular segment.
Cost
Enter the cost of sending a packet on an OSPFv3 interface.
